“…As regards fish caught off the coast of Brazil using bottom trawling, weight-length relationships are described in the north-northeastern coast (Cordovil & Camargo, 2007;Romero et al, 2008;Freire et al, 2009;Joyeux et al, 2009) and in the south-southeastern coast (Giannini & PaivaFilho, 1990;Bernardes & Rossi, 2000;Haimovici & Velasco, 2000;Muto et al, 2000;Araújo & Vicentini, 2001;Almeida & Branco, 2002;Santos, 2004;Vianna et al, 2004;Souza-Conceição et al, 2005;Frehse, 2009;Joyeux et al, 2009;Freitas et al, 2010;Haluch et al, 2011). This study furnishes the weight-length relationships of 44 fish species collected in Baia Sul, Florianópolis, Santa Catarina state, with weight-length relationship estimate of two species for the first time in Brazil.…”
